The variants.

Each variant has its own model, texture and biomes. Click one to show it on the plinth.

Add lions to your Minecraft server.

Lions come to your server in six variants: African Lion, African Lioness, Asiatic Lion, Asiatic Lioness, White Lion and White Lioness. They spawn on their own in the savanna, savanna plateau and windswept savanna, and their young grow into adults.

In total, 90 animations bring them to life in game. The pack also adds four items, such as “Lion Mane Hair” or “Lion Fang Dagger”, with recipes for ItemsAdder, Oraxen, Nexo or MythicCrucible. Everything runs with ModelEngine and MythicMobs on Paper, from 1.21.4 to 26.3.
